I got the Platnum Level because I wanted to get in an instrument flight lesson while I was in the area. That worked out really well. After that, having access to all the videos is a bonus. Now I just need to figure out all the things I can do with it.

I am returning to flight instructing after 10 years of flying fighters and 25 years of corporate flying. I quickly realized that the volume of information that a private pilot needs to learn has increased at least ten fold as a result of GPS, APPs, WX sites, etc. I also knew that in order to teach the basics of flying, I had to go back to the basics of private and instrument flying. I plowed through the books highlighting and underlining. I quickly learned that it would take me forever to read everything I needed to read and even with my extensive flying experience, hard to retain well enough to teach. After watching an older Sporty’s training video series on instrument flying and finding it extremely informative I decided that I needed to look into Sporty’s training videos. I ended up purchasing the Sporty’s Flight Crew Membership so I could review everything at a much lower price. So far the results have been outstanding.

Well ..… I got about what I expected. Some good videos and articles, but nothing that separates this app from dozens of others. Works well with no technical issues. Truthfully, its the free shipping that works for me. I can get the content in other places just as easily.

I am looking to buy the Deluxe Learn to Fly package (classes + various equipment). Would it be possible to do some sort of upgrade to the platinum package that would add the physical items in that package?

I am nearing the end of private pilot training utilizing the Sporty's DVD collection, is the free flight lesson also available for an instrument lesson? I fly an Archer, do you have any Piper products in your fleet?

I have already purchased the Flight Review, IPC, Instrument course and just very recently purchased the learn to fly course. Is there a way I can receive a discount on the Flight Crew platinum membership? I'm taking my CFI check ride in 5 weeks and the FIRC would be helpful to have in my Sporty's library. Thank you for awesome products. William Graef

BEST ANSWER:Since you already own the courses outright it would be beneficial to just purchase the basic level. The FIRC course is only available for one year from purchase. The courses that are included are only valid for one year. As a flight instructor, you are only required to renew every two years.
